Seek & Find: Will you visit J.Crew this Weekend?

This is the weekly "sale watch" post, to help each other find sale
items at our
various local J.Crew stores. ;)

If
you are stopping
by a J.Crew store this weekend to see
what's available (if
anything!) in theSALE, or to see some NEW ARRIVALS {sigh!} in
person, maybe you might be
willing to share that with us in this
post. In particular, if you could
share with us a few of the
noteworthy items that are available, at
what prices, and potential sizes
the store is carrying (as well
as the store location)- that would be
fantastic!

Also,
please let us know if your local store is
carrying an additional percent
off sale. Thanks in advance!!! :)

P.S.
I noticed that many of
you have already been reporting sale
items (and in which stores) in
other posts which by the way "thank
you!" :) I really appreciate how
helpful we are for each other!

Yes, I need to return a keeper chambray shirt. I got it in PXXS and it's too big for me! I'll try to see if I find one in the girls' department. It's weird because jackets and tippis are fine for me, the smaller sizes even too small sometimes.

What a wonderful mid-Friday pick me up. Thanks Melissa. I remember this catalog. Like (original) Genny, I got the sea glass tank and dress and also the Catarina top and Jessie blouse both in white. I I have worn them all every summer without fail.

I'm going in an hour! Hoping to snag some t's and shorts and one of the straw beach hats in natural for my upcoming jaunt to Bermuda. But, I also have a $100 gift card to Banana burning a hole in my wallet. Will hit up both. Yay!

If your store has an addtl 50% off, it will be helpful to list the store name. Someone shared that Princeton NJ has addtl 50% off final sale yesterday. The stores near me have all still had addtl 40% off. Still going today, I should add.

Somebody seems to have used this already. MBaker, thank you so much for sharing your code. I didn't get one with my Style Guide (actually, I didn't get a style guide) so if any JCAs have a code they're not using, I would be glad to take it off your hands! My email is bankygirl at gmail dot com.

I've got some more returns to make so I'll be going. Would be great if my store has 50% off sale items but I doubt it. I wish that the Juan Carlos Obando® for J.Crew Dolores blouse that I am completely enamored with was available at my store.

cc - My vps happily matches in-store prices & promos. It seems like they are now able to look at in-store prices. Overall, J Crew has gotten more match friendly, so I think you'll be able to get it done.

Went to crewlet to do a few returns. They had a new dress....Derby dress in royal blue/white stripe. Really cute! I sized up bec it ran small on me. 30%off plus I had 20% off coupon and came to $50 and change.

I've had good experiences with SAs in store applying the 40% (or current percent off) to on-line items. If I call or (if I can) go in the store and request the specific item(s) and mention that I saw them on-line, they've been awesome about ordering them for me and applying the percent off (with free shipping). Keeps me coming back! The drawback of course is that if it is a rare or coveted item, by the time I make the call or visit, the item has been bought by someone else. And so it goes : ) HTH!

I have no idea of when or how or even if truly, but my in-store VPS told me that J Crew will be having summer Friday flash sales from noon to midnight- different sales/promos each time. If so, it might be interesting.

just received some on line ordersFACTORY...snap wallet in seaside coral (cute...keeping for easy light summer beach wallet)tie neck peasant top in navy (need to size down one size...runs very large) even for a loose top of this kind #A5788printed dark cove silk cotton button down tts .but sheer ...not keeping #42804Retail...antique floral ants A1488 and the antique floral dress A3849...not keeping either. The pants have a seam down the front and fit strange...tight on calves ? the dress...well who are they fitting for these dresses ? the porportions are so off....too much material under the arm...too short...too deep of a slit neck ??? just so off its comical.linen drapey drawstring pants #A7090...nice in the iris color but really baggy in the front...too PJ like but would by on super super sale for a song to wear only at home.Evie sandals #A0558 in navy...keepers love a ggod mid heel navy sandal...feels well made.lastly the geometric print silk caftan #A2899...love this print and the silk ....this was the surprise keep of the order...All of the jewellery ,purses, scarves etc....have not enticed me...and I need accesories! ANYONE HAVE ANY LOVES FOR THE CREW LATELY...

I wanted to mentio the antique floral print....well the discriptive word "antique" ...IRL the word would be "old" it is muted in colors ....rather dull in sheen and just looks OLD .... not antique which only sounds better.... but it is dull for a J crew

Went yesterday to the Lincoln Park Chicago store...it was pretty quiet, with not much on sale. The sale rack was pretty bad. That said, I did pick up a Vintage tee for 30% off. Only the scoopnecks are supposed to be on sale but this one seems like a V, which is what I had wanted. Anyway, I returned the skinny zipper pants. J.Crew pants are just not doing it for me anymore. I don't know if they changed their sizes but they're all too big or too small or too short...especially compared to Madewell.

I totally agree with your assessment of J Crew pants. It is extraordinarily disappointing. I would love to have some full length options in the cute colors and styles of the one billion capri or cropped versions that abound. And how many times is one size too large and the next size down too small? Really? And if I chance it and hope it shrinks- it won't- or hope it stretches- it doesn't. I just seem to be stuck in J Crew in-between size purgatory.

My store (Short Hills, NJ) had 50% off sale and honored 15% teacher discount, I got the patio skirt and seersucker puff sleeve blazer for $85 total (forget the breakdown). This store had a ton of sale - more than I have ever seen.
